The Assessing Department handles all deed transfers, property owner mailing address changes​​, farmland assessmentand tax exempt applications. The Assessor's Office also provides applications for and answers questions about the following property deduction removal​ programs:

Income-qualified homeowners who are 65 years and older or disabled may receive a $250 deduction on their property.

Qualified veterans and widows of veterans can receive a $250 deduction on their property.

Permanently disabled veterans may be entitled to full exemption from property taxes if qualified.

The Assessor's Office also administers the five-year residential abatement program. Certain improvements which add value to a home (i.e. additions, decks, sheds, extra bathrooms) are eligible for a property tax abatement. The value that is added, up to $15,000, will be abated for five years provided timely application is made with the assessor. Also available is a five year payment in lieu of tax (PILOT) program for qualifying new commercial/industrial construction. Contact the assessors office for details.​
